I admit for previous Mother’s Days, Asa and I took the lazy dog route and let Dad pick her gift. Those gifts tended to be on the practical side. Although Mom never said anything, she sure didn’t react like they do on those Mother’s Day commercials. This year I decided to let the most impractical […]
Hello, Imaginary Friends. Thank you for coming today. You may be wondering why Asa and myself called this meeting. It has come to our realization that you may be what our Great Nana called, “fair weather friends.” Why is it that you are always willing to tag along with us on sunny beach strolls… ….but […]
Asa and I may be sidelined while Mom and Dad search for a new car. However, that doesn’t mean our friends won’t be going road tripping this summer! Therefore, today we are sharing our tips on how to prepare for a road trip with dogs. Safety First: Just like your humans wouldn’t go on a car […]
Sadly we were told by our mechanic that Dad’s 19 year old car is beyond repair. Thus begins our quest to purchase a new car, something which Dad is somewhat prepared for and already has a spreadsheet of various makes and models to examine. However, being Helicopter Dog Parents, this means they are asking questions […]
Mom has a lot on her mind lately. Therefore she did what generations of women in her family have done in similar situations – she cleaned the house. I’m not talking your average weekly chores. I’m talking about finding what’s that in the back of the cupboards and closets, and dusting the top of the […]
Yesterday was National Paranormal Day, which is a day dedicated to answering questions beyond the normal scope of traditional science. Yet I missed it because of that infernal beeping in Dad’s loaner car! Well those Martian Cats, who are clearly responsible for that annoying beeping technology, aren’t going to stop this Dog Ufologist from celebrating! […]
It is official. We are NEVER getting a new car. Dad took his 19 year old car in for a repair this week, and they gave him a brand new 2023 as a loaner. Perhaps it is their subtle hint that it is time to upgrade? At first I was lured in by how much […]
Dogs, gather around, today we are talking about the importance of having a healthy lawn. However, humans have an odd perception of what it means for a yard to be “healthy.” According to the folks at Bee City USA, “Lawns cover 40 million acres, or 2%, of land in the US, making them the single largest […]
Chuck Billy isn’t the only dog around here who can conduct scientific experiments. This weekend using him as my test subject, I proved that sleeping on the wrong side of the dog bed can lead to a grouchy Golden. We’re all entitled to an off day, even Golden Retrievers. Such was the case with Chuck […]
Everyone knows I’m a rocker. But I’m also a little bit country too. So today put on your cowboy hat and boots, and join me in singing my parody of the great Willie Nelson classic, “On the Road Again!” Except my version is dedicated to the best game around – Playing Fetch Again! Playing fetch […]
